Description:
In this 10-video course, explore testing frameworks that are used to assist with testing Javascript (JS) applications, including Mocha, Chai, Enzyme, and Jest. Examine the different types of testing for full stack development—unit, integration, and functional—and the use of component testing in a ReactJS application with snapshots. Begin by learning more about testing JS applications and the various types of tests you can run. Then receive an overview of the browser development tools for app development and take a close look at browser developer tools, specifically the DOM (document object model) inspector, and the CSS (cascading style sheet) Manipulator, examining page styles and how to dynamically change any of these styles. Learn how to run simple tests with NodeJS, Mocha, and Chai, and to install Jest and Enzyme in a ReactJS application. Then test a custom component with Jest and Enzyme. Finally, explore snapshot testing, by using a renderer package to create a snapshot. The closing exercise involves creating and testing a boilerplate app.

Description:
Javascript web development requires a supporting architecture, and Node provides the back-end support that most front-end development code needs. In this 12-video course, learners will explore Node Package Manager (NPM), a tool that installs supporting software for most front-end development for full stack development. To begin, NodeJSJSON package configuration will be downloaded and installed and the command NPM init will be used to create a package .json file; then a simple NodeJS server will be built. You will learn about the importance of the HTTP module and how to use Node's NPM to install a package, Express, then add routes and accept parameters with Express. Next, learn how to modularize the application with JS Files by decomposing the app with Node modules, and then implement controllers to handle the logic. In a further tutorial, you will continue working with Node.js by learning how to work with the host file system. Finally, you will discover how to work with MySQL database using Node and retrieve records. In the closing exercise, learners will build a simple NodeJS server.
